Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Shredded Cooked Chicken
  • 6-8 corn Tortillas
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp Green Onion
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt to taste
  • 2 tbsp Melted Butter

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Skillet (for warming tortillas)
  • Baking sheet or plate
  • Frying skillet
  • Tongs
  • Paper towels
  • Small bowl (for dip)

Method
 

  1. Combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, melted butter, and cheese in a mixing bowl, stirring until the mixture is rich, glossy, and fully coated.
  2. Warm each tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for 15–20 seconds per side until soft and flexible to prevent cracking.
  3. Add about 2 tablespoons of filling to each tortilla, roll tightly, and place seam-side down on a baking sheet to hold their shape.
  4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering, then fry the taquitos seam-side down for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  5. Mix sour cream (or Greek yogurt) with ranch or blue cheese dressing and a little chopped chives in a small bowl to make a cool, creamy dip.
  6. Arrange the taquitos on a platter, drizzle with extra buffalo sauce, and serve with the dip. Add more chives or crumbled cheese on top if you like.
